Mod Configuration Menu Setup (Time to bootup the game)

Game Settings

In this section we will be configuring the in-game menus.

Display

  • Depth of Field: Set to minimum

MCM Settings

In this section we will be configuring the in-game mod menus.

Frostfall

It is recommended to activate this mod first and let it fully load in before continuing with the rest of the MCM settings. This is to allow Classic Classes and Birthsigns to trigger - if this is left for last or after you are in the game world, the scripts for Classic Classes will be running in the background and will interfere with saving and (to an extent) loading.

Classic Classes does not use an MCM menu, and triggers off of equipped item/spell changes, which Frostfall does as a part of its setup. The dialogue for Classic Classes will likely interrupt you setting up Frostfall, and this is intended and correct.

If you intend to use the Helgen Cart Ride (Vanilla Start) option of ASLAL, set up Frostfall as indicated below, then disable the mod until you are inside Helgen Keep or, better, after exiting Helgen Keep. Otherwise, setup as indicated and leave it on.

Overview Panel

Frostfall Status Section

  • Frostfall is: Enabled (Exit menu and wait for quest to complete before opening the menu again.)

Classic Classes and Birthsigns

Choose Adventurer, Classic Classes, or Custom Class.

If you chose Classic Classes, select the class you want. If you chose Custom Class, build your custom class.

A few seconds after you've finished selecting your class, a Birthsigns menu will show up.

Choose Fourth Era Birthsigns or The Traveller.

Third Era Birthsigns are not recommended for use with OMEGA, due to being overpowered.

If you chose Fourth Era Birthsigns, select which standing stone you'd like to start with. Note that the descriptions will not be accurate as we use Andromeda to change the standing stones.
